Traditionally the other cowboy Ducks, then tackles, and the two tussle around on the ground like hapless girls.

haymakers are easily destroyed (dissolved) with a quick head shield.

hey,

What about the big lump whose haymaker can easily club the whole structure down. In that circumstance is it better to evade/ blend / borrow?

I sure think so. The big roundhouse haymaker thrown from way out in right field is primarily a threat only to the idiot who stands firmly planted in place to receive it. ::)

Better to duck, dodge, bend, or fold if caught by surprise while standing still, and better yet to take quick steps in order to evade and counter from a more advantageous position. ;)

I don't know what you guys are talking about...
The only right way to deal with that sort of thing is to take it like a man, i.e. block it with your face, followed by a loud "IS THAT ALL YOU GOT?!", followed by a haymaker of your own. Spit the blood (with an occasional tooth), repeat. Continue until exhaustion or KO, then become best buddies with your former opponent and go get drunk.

Nahhh that ain't broke back, thats pure dodge city , or in my day thug city , nowadays these young punks don't take the time to make a friend cause they think it's a video game and when you shoot someone they come back , or just zap off of the screen. Then they find out about the broke back scenario in the joint :'(
